Goodies Galore
Every week there's been more to buy at the Farmer's Market. I came home with a dinner's worth yesterday.
In the mailbox was a very fragrant order from Penzy's. The spice shelf in the kitchen needed refreshing so I put in a big order. There's a lot more in the box than what you can see here. A lot more.
Also waiting in the mailbox was this box of sock yarn. Knit Picks was having a 30% off sale at the same time Daughter sent me a gift certificate for Mother's Day. One day I'm going to count how many balls/skeins I have of sock yarn and that amount is most likely going to be pretty scary. I have a recurring fantasy of just sitting on the floor surrounded by needles and project bags and casting every single one of them on just for the heck of it.
Edited to say: I did count my sock yarn when I put these newest additions away and I now have 92(!) balls/skeins. If I knit about 12 pairs a year it would take me around 8 years to knit it all IF (and that's a big IF) I do NOT add to the stash. I'm starting to suspect this can't be done.

I'm not even going to think about counting mine!!
ReplyDeleteThe fresh vegetables look great! Love the new yarns!!!
ReplyDeleteSo many good acquisitions! My stash closet has gotten very messy so I'm going to have to organize and cull sometime soon. I'm pretty sure i don't have 92 skeins of sock yarn, so there's no rush. ;-)
ReplyDeletethose veggies look so good. I'm getting the last of my seeds in, as well as the veggie seedlings I started this spring! Hopefully may good harvests to come!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely box of yarn. I got the same email from knitpicks and I deleted it very fast so I was not tempted!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you're already getting fresh produce at your farmers market. Not here. People are just now starting to plant. We had freezing temps just last week!
ReplyDeleteI love your box of yarn. I think I have about 30 or so skeins of sock yarn and I'm trying not to buy more until after I use some of it. It's hard. Yarn is so tempting.
Blessings and hugs,
Betsy
I'm sure if you put your mind to it you can knit more than 12 in a year!
